Release of Student Contact Information

To register, each student organization must provide the full names, local addresses, local home or cell phone number, and email addresses of three currently registered UW-Madison students. At least one of the students must be listed as a person authorized to represent the organization in financial matters.  It is the responsibility of the primary contact person to check with student contacts to be sure that they have given permission to be listed on the registration form,including their name, address, phone number and email address.

The mailing and email addresses and phone numbers of primary contacts are public information as a way for students to get in contact with your organization. Primary contact information is available on the Student Organization Office web pages and on hard copy lists produced by the office. Note that on rare occasion, there may be a request to view your complete registration form. In that event all information on the registration form is available for public view.

Organizational vs. Personal Contact Information

1. If you have an organizational mailing address, an organizational email address, or an office phone, be sure to list this on the registration form. Our database will automatically default to using these organizational contacts before posting a primary contact’s local address, email address, or local home phone or cell number.
   
2. However, student contacts are still required to list their personal local address, local home or cell phone number, and email address in the student contact section of the form.
   
3. If a student has safety or security issues around the release of personally identifying information, speak with the Director of the Student Organization Office, 265-2407, to request any special accommodation.
   
4. If you wish to obtain an organizational mailing address, you may apply for a mailbox at the Student Organization Office. Call 263-0365 for further information. If you wish to obtain an organizational email address, apply online at [http://doit.studentorg.wisc.edu/nf_forwarding.html].
